Screencap from ABC News

Why waste precious resources obliterating white nationalists and gun lobbyists from our political landscape when there’s still so many shonky builders to expose? It’s a bloody disgrace.
Dodgy car salesmen, real estate scammers, and shonky builders have been counting their lucky stars since a hidden camera story broke which is actually in the public interest.
Not everyone is feeling so positive about Al Jazeera’s exposé of One Nation’s assiduous efforts to further corrupt Australia’s political process and foster home-grown white nationalist terrorism.
A Current Affair has questioned the journalistic ethics of going after hoses of hate speech instead of Dodgy Daryll, Today Tonight has asked why target a party of racist conspiracy theorists instead of Slippery Sam, and 60 Minutes has questioned the time spent on sauced up gun-violence advocates instead of Shady Sharon.
They’ve all asked that the Australian media crack on with what it does best, speaking truth to powerful welfare cheats.
